Yvette~How cool is that?? A hometown Grammy winner!! Maybe you should send your Blog post to him...he might be in the market for a new house if he wins!! :)
I had no idea that Bruce Hornsby was from Williamsburg. I used to love (I guess I still love it) that Mandolin Rain song he sang. It would have been cool if I had run into him when I used to live there.
Bruce Hornsby gone country? Well I'll be. We have a lot of celebrities with second homes here. I'm surprised there's not a company that produces "Maps to the Stars" here like there in L.A. Hmmmmmm.
Yvette - Just want to drop a note and wish you a very happy, healthy and prosperous new year 2009; hoping everything is allright with you, since I have not seen you posting any blogs lately. Miss you!
Yvette, I love Hornsby and a lot of his music! I didn't know he was born there but what great trivia. I have a few of his CD's. I really like the old stuff better. Happy New Year!
